Robin walked into the training room. His eyes darted to Sunburst, who was lifting weights.

"Why are you avoiding Chance?" Robin asked, walking over to his future daughter.

"I'm not avoiding him, I'm just training," Sunburst growled, pushing the weights up.

"How much is that?" Robin asked.

"Two hundred and fifty pounds," Sunburst answered. She easily pushed the weights up and set them on the holder. She sat up and looked at Robin. "What do you want?"

"You're my daughter," Robin answered. "Can't you tell me what's going on?"

"I'm not your daughter yet," Sunburst muttered.

"But you will be," Robin reminded her.

"And at this age you were as dedicated to your job as I am," Sunburst retorted, sitting up. She walked over to a punching bag and began punching it.

"I am dedicated, but if I've told you anything then you'll understand that too much dedication is harmful," Robin told her, placing a hand on her shoulder.

"I know," Sunburst muttered, hanging her head. "You told me all about Slade. When I was six…and you didn't leave out a single detail. Not even about the hallucination."

"Why would I tell you about that at such a young age?" Robin asked in shock.

"Because I was six when I told you that I wanted to be a hero like you," Sunburst answered softly, walking away from him. "You didn't want me to go down that path, not yet. So you told me the horrors of being a superhero to try and deter me. But it didn't work. I was adamant."

"So, care to show me what I've taught you?" Robin smirked. Sunburst looked over her shoulder at him with a glint in her eyes.

"You sure you want to do that?" she smirked.

"I'm positive," Robin nodded.

"Bring it on daddy," she smirked, spinning around and sliding into a fighting stance.


"So, what's the deal with you and Sunburst? You two a couple or something?" Beast Boy asked as they continued their game. "I mean, she was kinda rude, but the second you showed up, she was taking care of you."

"No," Chance answered. "She's into her job as much as her dear old dad."

"Doesn't surprise me much," Beast Boy muttered. "Ever since I've met him the dude's been strung a little too tightly."

"I wouldn't say that exactly," Chance muttered. "They're just dedicated. And who would blame them." His voice was a very soft whisper. Lost in memories Chance slowly stopped pushing the buttons on his controller, allowing Beast Boy to take the lead.

"YEAH! I'm in the lead now! Just try to catch up!" Beast Boy cheered. Chance blinked and noticed that his racer was falling behind.

"Don't count me out just yet," Chance smirked, pressing some buttons with one hand. He snapped his fingers secretly and Beast Boy's controller unplugged itself. Chance used Beast Boy's distraction and claimed victory.

"No fair! You totally cheated!" Beast Boy protested. "I don't know how, but you totally cheated!"

"All's fair in love and war," Chance replied with a smirk. "And this is definitely war."


Sunburst jumped flipped back, dodging her soon-to-be father's bo staff. "You're going to have to do better than that!" she smirked, shooting Starbolts at him. Robin spun his staff quickly, deflecting the energy.

"And you're going to have to give me a trick that I don't know," Robin responded with a smirk of his own.

"Bring it on!" Sunburst nodded. The two ran at each other. Robin jumped in the air and spun, aiming his heel for her head. Sunburst smirked and ducked, grabbing his leg. She swung him around, and slammed him onto the mat.

"Good move," Robin complimented.

"I had a good coach," Sunburst replied with a smile. Robin jumped up and slid into a fighting stance once more.

"SUNBURST!" Chance shouted, entering the room. The sudden outburst caused the girl to falter in shock, falling to the ground. She pushed herself up and glared at her teammate.

"WHY ARE YOU SCREAMING!?" Sunburst shouted back in equal volume.

"Your communicator, it went off," Chance answered.

"What?" The girl gasped, grabbing it.

"Yeah, it flashed red for a few seconds, but then it suddenly stopped," Chance answered. Sunburst slid her fingers across the screen quickly, her eyes narrowing.

"Do you think it was the alarm Cyborg set up?" Robin asked, joining them.

"What alarm?" Chance asked.

"It was an alarm to alert Sunburst when one of your communicators came into this timeline," Robin answered.

"Where's Cyborg?" Sunburst asked.

"One minute," Chance answered, quickly running off. He came back after a few moments of intense silence. "He's working on the T-car in the garage!" Chance answered. Sunburst nodded and quickly flew off.

"Let's go," Robin ordered.


Sunburst flew into the garage and saw Cyborg rubbing his head.

"Hey, do you know if Chance was just in here?" he groaned. "I heard someone shout 'found him' but when I got out from under the car, no one was there."

"An alarm went off on my communicator but Chance said it only lasted a few seconds," Sunburst told him.

"Someone must have come here, but their communicator must have broke or something," Cyborg answered. "If it went off long enough, I'm sure I can pick up where the signal was."

"Please hurry," Sunburst asked, clasping her hands together.

"Don't worry, I won't let you down. We'll find them," Cyborg assured her.

"Thank you," Sunburst smiled, hugging him. She quickly flew out of the room, leaving him to the device.

"Now, let's see if I can track this thing down," Cyborg smiled.
